Rublev looks back on the hecatomb of injuries in Madrid: "Every tennis player is responsible for himself"
Andrey Rublev is set for another Masters 1000 final as he is reborn on the ochre of Madrid. Before facing Félix Auger-Aliassime this Sunday (not before 6.30pm), the Russian was asked about the succession of forfeits and withdrawals that have affected the tournament this year. Indeed, Jannik Sinner withdrew before playing his quarter-final (against Auger-Aliassime), while Medvedev and Lehecka withdrew during the match. Add to this the withdrawal of Alcaraz and Sinner for Rome, as well as the uncertainty surrounding Medvedev's participation, and it's clear that the list of injuries is longer than ever. And all this just a few weeks away from the French Open.
On this subject, the world number 8 explained: "Every time you go out on court, whether to train or to play, there's a risk. [...] I think it all depends on the moment. When you feel good, you feel good physically and there's less risk of something happening to you. When you're tired or things aren't going well for you, you have more problems with your body. Every tennis player is responsible for himself and knows when to push more or less on his body."
